GIANT SET at PIPELINE. Surfing & Bodyboarding Huge Waves.
Surfers and bodyboarders ride a massive set of waves at Banzai Pipeline, North Shore of Oahu, HI. Kainoa Mcgee on a bomb and Mike Stewart on a 2nd massive reef beast wave.
Dude at 1:32 got Munched! I was raised on Oahu, we used to go most years and the sets were usually 20 to 30+ Feet and Scary as hell. Almost nobody got into the water except the locals who had been boogie boarding it for years, or the pro's. My brother and I both surfed, but never did work up the courage to try that winter Banzai surf!
Watched this video and knew the comments would be about bodyboarding vs surfing. Surprise surprise! Sometimes I think people forget the reason we're all into this stuff – the feeling that you get when it's just you and mother nature – the feeling of humbling perspective that the sea gives to your life. If people want to troll, why troll people who are so similar to you. There are so many crazy douchebags out there; go and troll a crazy bastard posting about the importance of gun possession, or someone who denies climate change. Or anything else that might really get your goat. Better still, go surfing and, in the words of Andy, feel like a better person when you get out.
i reckon body boarders have it easy because they don't have to pop up or anything. it also hurts alot more when the lip comes down on a surfers head because they are standing. also i think the bodyboarders stole all the waves but thats just my opinion.
I remember as a kid in Rio de Janeiro boogieboarding using 1/4 plywood boards, before the foam boards came out. They would slide down the waves a lot faster. The drawback was, they didn't float so you couldn't wait for the waves on top of them, and if you wipe out you better stay away from them.
hey Im a surfer but I love body surfing when the waves arent there and boogieboarding would be way safer on pipe until you learn the wave then introduce your board to it.

Why did that surfer bail the way he did?

ONe of the sickest videos online.
Even big Pipe looks embarrassing after teahupu footage
I'd love to just be there. Weather surfing, bodyboarding or spectating from the beach. To see waves like that puts a big smile all over my face.

Golly, you must be waaaaay cooler than Mike Stewart.
Seriously, the "I'm cool – You're not cool" thing is a freaking lame joke.
Get over yourself.
Gosh boogie boarders are soo cool
That's a killer 'wipe out' at 1:37. I'm told there's a reef not far below the surface at Pipeline. That guy must have got smashed ! Hope he's ok.
Lol, you are one angry fellow.
I read that as Skrillex is better than snowboarding and I got really confused.
